A court in the southern city of Toulon sentenced a local man to a year in prison this week, with nine months suspended, after he racially abused a white man and later attacked him.

The assailant, aged in his thirties and of north African origins, was found to have shouted "You dirty white, I'm going to smash you. This is a place for Arabs," at the victim, who was in a carpark with five friends, both male and female, on the night of May 10th.

2. He was drunk!

A fact that risked clouding the issue for some is that the man accused of carrying out the attack is white himself, according to French daily Le Parisien.

What an idiot!

3. Don't they normally have criminal penalties for assault?

The article makes it sound like the only reason this guy is being imprisoned was because there was an ethnic element to the attack? That can't be true.
